Chivas USA vs. Los Angeles Galaxy

Coincidentally, both Chivas teams are playing their biggest rivals this weekend. The MLS version faces Landon Donovan and the Galaxy in American soccer’s only intra-city showdown. Here’s a reason for Union fans to watch: their team has Chivas USA’s first-round draft pick in January, currently No. 3 overall. It could be No. 2 if Chivas keeps losing.

You’ve probably read plenty about Chivas USA’s woes this year. In truth, both versions of the Goats are struggling. Even though owner Jorge Vergara has tons of money, his constant meddling with coaches and player development has caused problems on both sides of the Rio Grande.
